build: List single unit python tests allowing to run them separately

We run a certain number of tests right now, without being able to easily
run them separated or to check which one failed.

So add a script to inspect all the available unittests per each python
script and use it to figure out the tests we can run in meson.

As per this, define a global 'python_tests' variable in meson that allows
to register new python tests easily without having to repeat the settings
for all the tests.

For each test we have, we check if we can fetch a list of unit tests, and
if possible we create a meson test for each one.
Otherwise we just fallback to normal behavior.

This is something that can be hopefully implemented into upstream meson [1].
